Evolutionary Genome Analysis of Transformation into Small Cell Carcinomas from Lung Adenocarcinomas

Anecdotal case have been reported lung adenocarcinoma could occasionally transform into small cell carcinoma. Most of the reported cases were EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinomas that transform into small cell carcinoma during EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment. However, some cases also indicate lung adenocarcinomas without EGFR mutation could also transform into small cell carcinomas. Here we investigate this transformation process by whole genome sequencing of transformed small cell carcinomas as well as serially acquired samples of lung adenocarcinoma into small cell carcinomas.
